The Challenge

Like many independent event series, HÖHENFLUG faced a familiar challenge:
The major ticketing platforms dominate the market — charging high fees, long-term contracts, and offering little design freedom.

But for a brand like HÖHENFLUG, where design, mood, and identity are essential to the overall experience, that approach didn’t fit.
The team wanted full control over pricing, communication, and branding, while keeping the platform easy to use, mobile-first, and ready to launch fast.

Their audience books spontaneously — and almost entirely on their phones.
So they weren’t just looking for a ticket platform.
They needed a holistic solution that united ticketing, brand experience, and customer journey.

The Solution: Bookingbird as a Permanent Event Landing Page

With Bookingbird, HÖHENFLUG gained more than a ticketing tool — they gained their own dedicated event landing page. This page stays the same year-round — only the events change.
For the organizers, that’s a major marketing advantage: they can share the same link across Instagram, stories, and newsletters, and the community always knows — “That’s where I get the tickets.”

The page design was customized to reflect the visual identity of the brand — minimalist, modern, and image-driven, just like HÖHENFLUG’s Instagram aesthetic.

Consistent Branding — All the Way to the Ticket

One standout feature of Bookingbird is the ability to issue custom-branded digital tickets — both in Wallet format and as PDFs.

That means:

• At purchase, visitors already see the HÖHENFLUG brand.
• Between purchase and event, the ticket lives in their phone wallet or as a branded PDF — a daily touchpoint with the brand.
• At entry, that same ticket is scanned at the door.

This creates a continuous brand presence throughout the entire user journey: purchase → storage → check-in.

Especially for event series, this is powerful. Visitors often keep their tickets for days or weeks — turning them into free micro-branding moments that most major platforms don’t allow.

Pricing and Flexibility

One of the biggest deciding factors for HÖHENFLUG was Bookingbird’s transparent and flexible pricing:

• Only 2.5 % fee per ticket in the top plan,
• No contract commitments,
• Monthly scalability.

In practice, that means:
When there’s no event, they can scale down to a lower plan.
When a big event is coming up, they scale up — paying only for what they actually use.

So, HÖHENFLUG only spends money when revenue is being made — ideal for smaller organizers with fluctuating event schedules.

Check-In with the Bookingbird Scan App

On event day, the team used the Bookingbird Scan App.
It runs on any smartphone and turns it into a fully functional ticket scanner.

The crew could validate every ticket — whether PDF or Wallet — in seconds.
No additional devices.
No technical training.
No extra staff.

Fast, professional, and perfectly aligned with the brand’s polished appearance at the door.

Customer Testimonial

“Bookingbird was surprisingly easy to use.
We set up the page ourselves, created the tickets, and promoted everything right away.
The best part is the flexibility — no contract, and we can scale plans up or down monthly, just like our events.
And finally, our design stays consistent across the entire journey — from purchase to the ticket in the wallet to check-in.
That’s how ticketing should look in 2025.”
— Linus, Organizer, HÖHENFLUG‍

Conclusion

HÖHENFLUG proves that Bookingbird is far more than just a ticketing tool.
It’s an all-in-one platform that combines ticketing, branding, and the mobile customer journey — giving smaller, high-quality event series a professional digital presence without relying on big ticketing monopolies.

With low fees, no binding contracts, fully customizable design, and a Scan App that keeps entry fast and effortless, Bookingbird allows independent organizers to sell tickets like the pros — no extra tech team required.
